As a culminating
activity to our "Electricity Unit", Mrs. Dill's students constructed
houses out of cardboard boxes. Each house had to have at least four
rooms. Each room had to be wired with an "On" and "Off" switch in order
to work properly. The students worked in groups of four and each
student was responsible for wiring one of the rooms. Their grade was
evaluated by demonstrating that each room in their house had a switch in
which the light could be turned on and off. The students now believe
that they are ready to wire a brand-new house. Watch out Penelec!!!
